re: Lessons learned...or what every new woodworker should know...

Thanks for the interest folks. Sometimes you just have to laugh, even if it’s at my expense.

Some recent lessons include:

26. Never route the wrong way; trust me, it won’t end well.

27. Expect a wet spot on the front of your pants if you ignore lesson 26.

28. Don’t glue the box together until after you route the slot for the bottom.

29. If you ignored lesson 28…good luck brother. Just make another box.

30. Ash splinters take about 6 days to fester to the surface before you can dig them out.
